Hollister takes geological activity into account.  That's why he picks the
abyssal plains.  They are in the center of the plates where no siesmic
activity occurs (well, atleast there hasn't been any there for the last 10
million years).  Land, on the other had, is constantly changing-weather,
volcanoes, earthquakes, etc...

Had to put my 2cents worth since Amoh and I were the only Cornell team still
running SSD at Nationals!
